Signs of ovarian cancer can be mistaken for less serious conditions. That’s why listening to your body and getting checked by a clinician is vital. The earlier ovarian cancer is caught, the more treatable it is. Always listen to your body and get any symptoms checked out.

💜Cervical screening can save your life! Screening checks for types of HPV virus which can cause cervical cancers. Having HPV does not mean that you have or will develop cervical cancer, but it is important you don't miss your screening appointment. Visit nhs.uk/conditions/cervical-s…

If you've had an invitation for cervical screening, please don’t wait. Call your GP practice to book an appointment as soon as you can. Evening and weekend appointments may be available. If you missed your last screening, book an appointment with your surgery. It is not too late.
